Tonight’s Baseball Game: Lineups and How to Watch
Welcome to your simple guide for tonight’s baseball matchup! Whether you’re a longtime fan or just learning the game, we’ve broken down everything you need to know—who’s playing, where they’ll be on the field, and how you can tune in.
Meet the Two Teams
Tonight features two squads facing off. Think of it like two groups of kids picking sides for a game at the park—each team has nine players, and each player has a specific job (position) on the field.
Important Note: The content provided doesn’t give the teams official names (like "Mets" or "Yankees"), so we’ll call them Team A (the first lineup) and Team B (the second lineup) to keep things clear.
Team A Lineup (Batting Order)
Here are the nine players for Team A, listed in the order they’ll come up to bat. Next to each name is their position—the spot they’ll defend when the other team is hitting.
| # | Player | Position | What They Do (ELI5) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | A.J. Ewing | LF (Left Field) | Catches fly balls hit to the left side of the outfield. |
| 2 | Francisco Lindor | SS (Shortstop) | Fields ground balls between second and third base; often the team’s best defensive player. |
| 3 | Bo Bichette | 3B (Third Base) | Guards the base near the left-field line; needs a strong arm to throw runners out at first. |
| 4 | Carson Benge | RF (Right Field) | Catches fly balls on the right side; often has a strong throw to cut down runners. |
| 5 | Luis Robert | CF (Center Field) | Covers the most ground in the outfield; usually the fastest outfielder. |
| 6 | Brett Baty | 1B (First Base) | Catches throws from other infielders to get runners out at first base. |
| 7 | Marcus Semien | 2B (Second Base) | Fields balls hit to the right side of the infield; teams with the shortstop for double plays. |
| 8 | Jorge Polanco | DH (Designated Hitter) | Only bats—doesn’t play defense. Used in leagues where the pitcher doesn’t hit. |
| 9 | Francisco Alvarez | C (Catcher) | Crouches behind home plate to catch pitches; calls the game and throws out base stealers. |
Team B Lineup (Batting Order)
And here’s the lineup for Team B, same format.
| # | Player | Position | What They Do (ELI5) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Liam Hicks | DH (Designated Hitter) | Bats only; no defensive duties. |
| 2 | Xavier Edwards | 2B (Second Base) | Fields grounders on the right side; turns double plays with the shortstop. |
| 3 | Otto Lopez | SS (Shortstop) | The quarterback of the infield—ranges wide to stop hits up the middle. |
| 4 | Kyle Stowers | 1B (First Base) | The target for infield throws; scoops low throws out of the dirt. |
| 5 | Heriberto Hernandez | LF (Left Field) | Tracks down flies in left; backs up throws to third base. |
| 6 | Griffin Conine | RF (Right Field) | Patrols right field; keeps runners from taking extra bases. |
| 7 | Jakob Marsee | CF (Center Field) | The outfield captain—covers the most territory. |
| 8 | Graham Pauley | 3B (Third Base) | The "hot corner" defender; reacts fast to hard-hit balls. |
| 9 | Joe Mack | C (Catcher) | Receives every pitch, frames strikes, and controls the running game. |

DH = Designated Hitter. This player only bats and does not play a defensive position. It’s used in many leagues so the pitcher doesn’t have to hit.

Each team has its own nine-player batting order. The lineups above show who hits when and where they play defense for Team A and Team B.
